Riassunto

Excerpt from Rhode Island Independence Day Addresses, May 4, 1910: Historical Papers: Governor Nicholas Cooke, Edward Bosworth, Gen. Thomas Allin

Governor Arnold in the first volume of his history of The State of Rhode Island, p. 372 says, The last Colonial Assembly of Rhode Island met at Providence on May the Fourth.

The last important act in the colonial history of Rhode Island is now to be recorded. It was the Act abjuring allegiance to the British Crown; in effect a Declaration of Independence. It closes the colonial period of our history, for it established Rhode Island as an independent State, two months before the general Declara tion of the United Colonies. Then follows the Act and the names of the general officers of the new State and the members of the Gen eral Assembly. Governor Arnold adds, History should preserve the names of the actors in this closing scene of our colonial drama. May, 1776.
